Connor Smith, SJ

Connor is a Jesuit Scholastic studying philosophy and theology at Fordham University in the Bronx. He is a native of Denver, Colorado and will remind you in case you can’t tell from his Nalgene water bottle covered in stickers. He is a proud graduate of Regis Jesuit HS in Denver and the University of Colorado in Boulder. Connor met our God of beauty and adventure in the
Rocky Mountains, and was willing to follow when God called him away (for now) to be a Jesuit. Though he is perpetually homesick, Connor is happy because his Jesuit vocation is the greatest adventure of his life, and Jesus is his faithful companion.
